Well that time is here, I am leaving tomorrow on my 3000 mile drive across the USA. So everyone please wish me a safe trip :) :P This will be quite a road trip for me and a good test of willpower :P

I dont know how long I will be in NYC without any form of internet access, so I just wanted to wish everyone a Happy Halloween, thanksgiven, christmas, newyears, etc.

I might get back into benchmarking if my heart is in it. I havent even been into playing EQ2 much after I was told the news. I was going to start a new thread, but I figured I will just dump it here. Not like it really matters to anyone anyway.

But anyway, I thought about leaving my cell number, but I know there are some people here I rather not give that info too :P

Well good luck with the benchmarking, if I do come back. I will be coming back and hitting hard. So please dont disappoint me, set new goals and scores! I want a challenge!

Goodluck man, save travels. Be sure to bring many tales and pictures for us.

See ya whenever.

Hey Good luck On your trip.
Be safe, drive carefully, don't go to texas for the next week and enjoy yourself!
As rabidmoose said bring many tales and pictures!

GOOD LUCK!

edit

As you said: FOLLOW YOUR HEART ;) enjoy yourself

have a safe trip man.

i've done basically the same drive twice in the last 3 months... (california to pennsylvania to california). it's not a whole lot of fun, but if you drive for like 16 hours a day you can make it in 3 days... i like to do it that way just to get it done sooner.

Hey man, thanks for the advice, but I really dont need those... ummm women folks, I have more then enough cat houses on the way home to stop off at :P

Anyway, hit me up on AIM with your number, incase I need something :P

Damn Colossus, I've been a bit out of the loop lately, but your sig says it all. I hope your trip goes well and we see you back here soon. I pm'ed you my number in case you need a break before the last 4 hours of your trip, or run into problems on this side of the country, or whatever.

Thanks...

I had crashed earlier cause I am feeling sick (probably due to my nerves and such drastic life changes)... But I am awake again packing. bleh...

I get my truck in 12 hours :(

Sigh I am stormed in until Monday :( Well not really stormed in, but funds werent ready/available by today.. (BANKS SUCK!) and they promise it will be available on monday. So I am here until then.... This is not a good start, even if this is just one of the many hassle so far.

Gosh, I hope that's just a minor hiccup for you Big C. All my best on the move......and keep lookin' forward, don't ever look back with regrets/misgivings, that's all I can say. :) BTW, do you happen to have the link to the team site? (If you do, I'd most appreciate it if you could PM me the link as I've gotta update the scores of a few fellow Sharks). I PM'd V man 'bout it but it seems he's a lil busy I guess....

Its much better getting back. My trip to Roswell from Houston took about 21 hours. Coming back it was closer to 11.5.
